Draws walk in MLB debut
Jones went 0-for-2 with a walk and two strikeouts in Friday's 6-0 loss to the Brewers.
Analiz
Jones batted sixth in his major-league debut and was fanned by Jacob Misiorowski in both of his first two plate appearance before drawing a walk in the top of the fifth inning. Strikeouts have been a problem for Jones in the minors, as he struck out over 35 percent of the time last season before dropping that number to 32 percent across 142 plate appearances at Triple-A prior to his promotion. Jones will look to provide a power presence in the middle of the lineup while Giancarlo Stanton (calf) and Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) are on the shelf.

Batting sixth in MLB debut
Jones is batting sixth as the designated hitter in his major-league debut Friday against the Brewers.
Analiz
The 24-year-old was called up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre earlier Friday and is expected to see opportunities against right-handed pitching with Giancarlo Stanton (calf) and Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) on the shelf. Jones has continued to showcase his power and speed at Triple-A early this year with 11 homers and seven steals in 33 games, but his 32.4 percent strikeout rate remains a red flag in his profile.

Big-league promotion now official
The Yankees recalled Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.
Analiz
Jones has put together a .258/.366/.592 batting line with 11 home runs, seven stolen bases, and a 32.4 percent strikeout rate this season with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The left-handed batter should get a chance against right-handed pitching while Giancarlo Stanton (calf) and Jasson Dominguez (shoulder) are sidelined.
